<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Victor, post: 618590, member: 5454&quot;]I don&#039;t consider myself a pro.&nbsp; That said, I do buy coins at yard sales and flea markets.&nbsp; And I have obtained some wonderful coins that way plus some key dates.&nbsp; Prices paid to private sellers are cheap.&nbsp; Just a few examples:</p><p>At one yard sale I asked about coins.&nbsp; The old lady went in the house and came out with an old box of stuff.&nbsp; They were her brother-in-law&#039;s. She says make an offer. I offered $3 and took the box home.&nbsp; There were four 1862</p><p>Brittish large pennys, five US large cents and some small US silver.</p><p>Another place had a jar of coins in the guy&#039;s car.&nbsp; When asked if he had coins he went to the car and got them.&nbsp; I paid $25 and there were 6 SBA dollars,</p><p>eight Kennedy halves-there&#039;s $10 right there in face value.&nbsp; So my net cost was $15. But the best was an older 1894 Liberty nickel in XF.&nbsp; Then some other coins but the total value was far more than the price paid.&nbsp; Not all coins purchased this way have problems.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
